“Survivor” contestants are infamous for their petty catfights, but Nicaragua's tourism industry is holding out hope for something more.
When 20 American contestants face off for the $1 million grand prize on Survivor Nicaragua, about 13 million Americans will tune into watch — giving the country a level of pop-culture exposure like never before.
The Emmy award-winning reality TV show, which begins airing Sept. 15 on CBS, has promoted this season with a dramatic trailer highlighting Nicaragua as an exotic and untamed land of “impenetrable terrain” and “savage wildlife.”
